Ousmane Dembélé Produces 70 Minutes Of Otherworldly Football As Messi’s Replacement

With Lionel Messi given a rest and role as a substitute for Barcelona’s match against Leganes on Sunday, Ousmane Dembélé moved into the Argentine’s customary position on the right-hand side of Barca’s front three and spent the opening 45 minutes making the Camp Nou forget all about the man they were missing.

Dembélé opening run of the match led Leganes on a merry dance. He nutmegged one defender and then was millimeters away from dicing another. 

Lionel Messi Quote

I prefer to win titles with the team ahead of individual awards or scoring more goals than anyone else. I'm more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world.

“Everyone tells me I have to shoot more, although I usually prefer to pass. I should shoot more, it’s true,” he said following the 4-1 victory over Al-Ain.

The 17-year-old forward has been called up for the U.S. U-18 squad and is currently playing for Southend United in England’s third division. Kelman marked his first appearance with the senior side with one of the best goals in all of England on Saturday (though not all of the UK).

Keeper Scores On Free Kick From Own Half And His Celebration Said It All

Before Saturday, 37-year-old Elliot Morris had made 722 appearances for Belfast club Glentoran FC of the Norther Ireland Football League Irish Premiership. That was just fine, considering he’s a goalkeeper.
